Rhythm of the Imperium - - Bog - Baen Books - Plusbog.dk

Book Three in the View from the Imperium series from humorous SF master Jody Lynn Nye. Lieutenant Lord Thomas Kinago and his trusty constant companion, the unflappable Parsons, are back. And this time they''ve got a planet to save. The Zang, an elder race of the galaxy, may be a shrinking population, but they're also intelligent, curious, and powerful. What's more, they practice a most unusual art form: they bonsai star systems. Eager to witness this first hand, Lieutenant Lord Thomas Kinago, accompanied as always by his personal assistant Parsons, sets out on a several-week jaunt to see the Zang destroy a moon to enhance the beauty of a star system. But the trip is sidelined when Kinago's uncle offers to take him to the seldom seen human homeworld, Earth. Unable to resist, Kinago goes along, only to find on his return that the planet he's just visited may be in danger of being eradicated. Earth lies within the protective sphere of the Zang, but enemies of the Imperium are lobbying to have Sol system turned over to them. It is up to Kinago and Parsons to save Earth. Kinago has the key, but will he be able to persuade the Zang to spare the human homeworld before it's too late?

Weird World War IV - - Bog - Baen Books - Plusbog.dk

NEW STORIES OF FUTURE WARFARE FROM THE HOTTEST NAMES IN SCIENCE FICTION, FANTASY, AND HORROR TALES OF THE WAR BEYOND THE NEXT What if there were a war after Armageddon? How would the survivors emerging from World War III’s radioactive slag heaps fight in this conflict? Would they wage it with sticks and stones . . . and sorcery? Or would they use more refined weapons, elevating lawfare to an art and unleashing bureaucratic nightmares worse than death? Would they struggle against themselves or inter-dimensional invaders? What horrors from the desolate darkness might slither into the light? Wipe away the ashes of civilization and peer into a pit of atomic glass to witness the haunting visions of World War IV from today’s greatest minds in science fiction, fantasy, and horror. Contributors include: Jonathan Maberry Steven Barnes D.J. Butler Brad R. Torgersen Martin L. Shoemaker T.C. McCarthy Eric James Stone Stephen Lawson Freddy Costello and Michael Z. Williamson Laird Barron Nick Mamatas Brian Trent Erica L. Satifka Kevin Andrew Murphy Maurice Broaddus and Rodney Carlstrom David VonAllmen Deborah A. Wolf Nina Kiriki Hoffman Julie Frost Weston Ochse John Langan Praise for Weird World War IV: "Hazlett follows Weird World War III by looking even further into the future at the war after the next big one... the sheer weirdness of many of these pieces is a testament to the genre’s creativity and verve." — Publishers Weekly "Stories in this anthology range from dystopian in nature to hard-core sci-fi... With the diversity of authors in this collection, the stories cover a wide range of genres, viewpoints, and styles. This book has it all... There is a short story for just about any type of audience. Come take a look at the absurdity of future wars."— Manhattan Book Review "Although this might seem to be a limited theme, the various authors have risen to the challenge, and produced a wide variety of fiction incorporating science fiction and fantasy concepts into tales of struggles that do not always take place on battlefields."— Tangent Online "This book raises questions about who has access to what technology and to what ends that technology is used. In some of these stories, there is a philosophical core that makes the heart-thumping action all the more meaningful... Much like the previous anthology, I enjoyed it quite a lot."— Never Was Magazine Praise for Weird World War III: "Weird World War III stokes our collective fears with tales of worst-case scenario nightmares by some of the best writers in the business."— This Is Horror UK "A fascinating way to see how different authors of speculative fiction approach a similar theme... an enjoyable collection of speculative fiction presenting several interesting takes on WWIII scenarios between the US and Russia, the overall quality was high."— Tangent Online "A collection that runs the gamut in terms of what it does with the premise."— Sea Lion Press "Weird World War III is a buffet of war-related speculative fiction, guaranteed to entertain anyone who likes destroying humanity. Who would have known that blasting this species to Kingdom Come could be so fun?"— Never Was Magazine
